Yes, they are signals of Telemetry/Beacons (11705,50 V and 12496,50 H)

Based on the observed test carrier, roughly this should be the frequency plan..

According to the website this new satellite is due to start broadcasting at the beginning of August. So any day now. See below:-

BulgariaSat-1 is scheduled to start broadcasting in beginning of August. The satellite will provide direct-to-home television (DTH) and data communications services on the Balkans and other European regions. It is suitable for 4G LTE network at 1800 MHz. In addition to television and communication services, BulgariaSat-1 can be used in force majeure - accidents due to natural disasters - earthquakes, storms, floods when land-based networks are not working.

Will be interested to see how reception is here in the UK

Flysat reports PAL-signals on BulgariaSat?
If so, I would have to dust off my old Pace receiver...
What signals can be recieved to search for the satellite atm?

BulgariaSat 1 was scheduled to start broadcasting in early August. I guess technical issues with the satellite or uplink facilities maybe not being ready have delayed this. See earlier in the thread for their statement.
Watch this space. I would guess there will be a lot of channels on this satellite as it is a part venture with Bulsatcom which currently use transponders on Hellas Sat 2 at 39 east

Test carrier or pure carrier are reported as a Pal signal on Flysat...
Can I use those carriers to find the satellite? And how (without PC)?

Don't think these are from BulgariaSat, looks like the channels on neighbouring Eutelsat 3B, from 11450 upwards, take a look here:

They are offset by 850 MHz (10600 - 9750), so william-1 seems to have a high/low band LNB switching or configuration problem.

The channels only showed for 30 min then they were no longer active so it may have had something to do with the Sun,
Thanks for the feedback.

I think I'm not mistaken if I say many users,if not the majority,from this forum are not interested in TV programs,but the possibility of receiving satellites that are operational;less interested,the better.For these users,rathers dxers, every satellite launched regardless of where it is placed is a technical challenge,and if they succeed,is a reward for the passion they invested.
